Day 9 of 21 days of prayer and fasting. What will you commit to fast today so as to focus on crying out to God for the spiritual broken condition of our nation? We not only have a national spiritual crisis but there is a deep seeded personal spiritual crisis in the lives of many individuals. The greatest crisis is the rejection of the gospel and complete daily surrender to Christ being Lord of our lives. No doubt you have family members, friends, coworkers, neighbors and school mates that you know are in this condition. They are blinded to the truth of the gospel by the god(satan) of this world.
2 Corinthians 4:4
In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. Are you burdened over the fact that someone you know and love may spend eternity separated from God in hell? If you know Christ you pocess the answer. Not only should you pray for them but you should with great love, compassion and gentleness tell them the truth of the gospel message...their eternity is at stake! There is no one good no not one (Rom 3:10). All have sinned (Rom. 3:23). The penalty of breaking Gods law, which we all have done, is death; physically and spiritually which is separation from God forever (Rom. 6:23). There is no hope apart from crying out to God, repenting of your wicked ways, turning from sin and self and giving Him control. All made possible because of the death, burial and ressurection of Jesus Christ. If you hope is in this world alone you are of all men most miserable (I Cor. 15). Go tell somebody before its too late!
